Generating spin currents directly using ultrashort laser pulses

Posted by in category: physics

An international team of physicists has found that it is possible to generate spin currents directly using certain kinds of ultrashort laser pulses. In their study, published in the journal Physical Review Letters, the group used a linearly polarized laser pulse and a circularly polarized probe laser to create the spin currents.
